07_10_87/DATEINF

This website contains an archive of files for the Acorn Electron, BBC Micro, Acorn Archimedes, Commodore 16 and Commodore 64 computers, which Dominic Ford has rescued from his private collection of floppy disks and cassettes.

Some of these files were originally commercial releases in the 1980s and 1990s, but they are now widely available online. I assume that copyright over them is no longer being asserted. If you own the copyright and would like files to be removed, please contact me.

File contents
DATESTAMP

by J R Crellin

Master computers only

Purpose

To append a comment to View files as
they are saved recording the date and
time.  The same information is also
added to BASIC files but will only be
seen if they are *DUMPed.  EDIT,
VIEWSHEET or TERMINAL files are not
stamped.  

To use DATESTAMP

Type *DATER.  Subsequent use of SAVE
in VIEW will cause the date
information to be appended to the
saved file.  You will see it in VIEW
if the file is then reLOADed.  

The BASIC program DATEbas assembles
and saves DATER.
